I got mine already!
A friend of mine was giving me a Barbara Streisand record full with Christmas songs.
What was she thinking about me? I'm a bit concerned.
Who else got offending gifts for Christmas?

My mother bought me a coffee maker thing last year. Not a great gift for someone who doesn't like coffee
You might have guests.

When I was about 13 my grandparents who I haven't seen for about 20 years bought me a paisley dress with a paper doily collar on. My wonderful mother made me wear it infront of the christmas tree whilst she took a photo so they could think "that you wore it on christmas day"
On my mothers part though she did let me take it off straightaway and we took it back to the shop and got a credit note!

I was hoping for a tamagochi for Christmas, and all I got was a Middle Eastern bloke sacrificing himself to cleanse my sins. I ask you!

This thread makes me realise actually, I've been remarkably lucky pressie-wise.
There was the one time my mum bought me a Crowded House CD, of all things (I was about 12 or 13 I think)... it had been advertised on the telly and I just casually said I liked one of their songs - and I mean casually! - but because SHE liked them herself she went and bought it.
Actually now it comes flooding back, like repressed memory syndrome or something... she got me a Simply Red CD as well!
I made her take them back to the shop - that's quite evil isn't it? But she did the same to me when I got her a jumper and a bathrobe she didn't like. Bitch!

BTW, worst Xm-ASS present was a new violin when I was about 9-10 yearsa old and when all I could think about was how to get out of my (forced) violin lesson!

Strangely the best Christmas present I ever received was a musical instrument (flute) and lessons although I was initially gutted because I had originally really wanted an oboe or a saxophone.Delilah wrote:worst Xm-ASS present was a new violin when I was about 9-10 yearsa old and when all I could think about was how to get out of my (forced) violin lesson!
Apparently one of my classmates would have cried if he got some of my presents. Then again, he's not a fiddly techy geek. Today I helped my mother choose me a maths textbook to put under the tree...but I'm just weird
I guess worst is in the eye of the beholder.

I got a bottle of shampoo one year. That was odd. I spent all day wondering whether my mum was trying to tell me something or if it was just a weird joke.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

Can't really thing of a terrible thing I ever got for Christmas, but plenty of years to go to get crap gifts
One of the worst things ever given to me was a projection clock, with big clear orange letters for the time on it, and it projected the same... If there's one thing I can't stand when I'm trying to sleep it's anything that makes light (plus it was oversized and nearly took all of my bed-side table )
